Board Members


The Grant District 110 Educational Foundation is an independent organization which raises money to assist the students, teachers, staff and residents of District 110. No tax payer money is used to fund or pay any salaries of any member or advisor. It is a not-for-profit organization and all members and advisors work voluntarily and of their own free will to assist members of the community. They are selected among a group of upstanding and respected members of their community either as business owners, former alumni, faculty or staff and professionals. Raising funds requires a lot of time, patience, leadership, communication and organizational skills. The Foundation Board always appreciates people who want to volunteer, especially if they are sincere about working and meeting the goals and mission of the Foundation.
